Chapter 341 No betrayal
Chapter 341 No betrayal
In the previous life, when they were able to open a bookstore, there was no room for bookstores to survive in the market. Everyone was accustomed to reading e-books, and the sales of paper books were very limited. If they opened a bookstore, they could not even earn back the rent.
It can only be a person who is not short of money and wants to show his feelings.
Gu Huanxi once had a dream, which was to own a bookstore of his own. The decoration must be stylish so that everyone who walks in can calm down, find a favorite book, and find a quiet corner to read. Stunning writing, spend a wonderful time leisurely.
Even if you are immediately trapped by the troubles of the world after you go out and have to rush for the future, at least the time in the bookstore is slow and nostalgic. There is a pure land. When you are tired, you have an extra place to relax. Stressful habitat.
Unfortunately, her dream did not come true. Her abilities were limited and she could not just focus on her feelings and ignore her daily necessities.
Fortunately, she has seen the light of day in this life. She is no longer trapped by money and can run the world of her dreams.
The next day, after Xu Huaiyi went to the college, Gu Huanxi was at home thinking about how to design the bookstore, as well as the positioning and operation issues. He made more than ten sketches and revised them over and over again, just to achieve the effect he wanted. , elegant and stylish, quiet and tasteful, it can retain every scholar who walks in, making them love this place from the bottom of their hearts and be reluctant to leave.
She also thought of many names for the bookstore. This one was good, and that one was not bad. They all had their own meanings, but she couldn't decide on one.
A few days passed in a flash.
In the past few days, Xu Huaiyi took the time to find Master Huixin, and he had already negotiated with him to hold a temple opening ceremony for the village. He also chose an auspicious day, which was when he was on vacation.
He also asked Ren Yazi to buy a dozen people. He was afraid that he would not understand the meaning and misunderstood, so he took his classmates to help him.
Especially Su Zhe, he gave a lot of advice, and the people who bought it were all relatively reliable, including concierges, women who did rough work, coachmen and servants, and a few honest and responsible maids, some of whom were more eccentric. Yes, those servants all have straight heads and straight faces, but the maids are all plain-looking, even mediocre and a bit ugly.
A rich family would not buy such a maid to serve. No matter how capable she is, she will be disgusted by her vulgar appearance, cannot use her, and will make others laugh.
Therefore, there is no market for such people. What people are most afraid of is getting their own hands hurt. Who would have thought that a strange guest came today, and he only selects this kind of people, and does not consider anyone who is slightly more delicate.
What's wrong with this?
Ren Yazi didn't understand and didn't dare to ask.
Su Zhe was puzzled, knowing that Xu Huaiyi didn't like to test in roundabout ways, so he asked directly.
Others were also curious.
Xu Huaiyi said matter-of-factly, "You are easily restless if you are good-looking. What if you have some thoughts about me and plot against me behind my back?"
Su Zhe, "..."
This reason was so powerful that he was speechless.
Such things happen endlessly in wealthy families. It is not uncommon for a beautiful maid to crawl into the master's bed. If the male master has a maid he likes, he will take the initiative to take her in. It is so common, so why should he worry about her? Just go to sleep, since men won't suffer in this kind of thing anyway.
They were all men, and Zhao Sanyou had the same idea. He was more upright and couldn't help but say this. He was tricked, so he simply kept them in the backyard. Anyway, they were not short of food. They would be raised wherever they were raised. , I don’t want to be given a status, so I just become a roommate to relieve my boredom.
As natives, there is nothing wrong with their ideas, but Xu Huaiyi is not good at it. Even just hearing it makes him feel sorry for his wife. He immediately retorted, "I have a daughter-in-law, and I will only let her touch her alone in this life. Other women are like gods." No way."
"What?" Zhao Sanyou was stunned, "I can only touch one woman in this life?"
Xu Huaiyi nodded heavily, "I will be loyal to my wife and will never betray her."
Zhao Sanyou was so surprised that he was speechless. Even though he did not have any concubines at home, when it was inconvenient for his wife to take care of him, a common room would be arranged in the house. He was used to it and never thought about loyalty or disloyalty.
No, isn't it appropriate to be loyal to a woman?
Su Zhe was also surprised, but after the surprise, he felt that it was unexpected and reasonable. Xu Huaiyi is a special person, isn't he? Otherwise, he wouldn't like to befriend him so much, but he was still a little curious, so he asked vaguely, "What about the woman after she gets pregnant?"
Xu Huaiyi said matter-of-factly, "Just hold it in, it's only been a few months, can you still make it through?"
Su Zhe's eyes flashed, "Don't you feel aggrieved?"
Xu Huaiyi chuckled, "What's wrong with this? As long as you think about your daughter-in-law who is suffering from pregnancy and risking childbirth to give birth to a child, there is no need to worry about touching other women at that time. , That’s a stab in the heart of a wife, and no man who loves his wife will do it.”
Zhao Sanyou touched his nose guiltily.
Wang Qiusheng was magnanimous, but his wife still couldn't survive the birth, leaving him with only a son, which finally gave him some comfort.
However, he boasted that he was deeply in love with his wife, but he could not say that he would never touch other women like Xu Huaiyi. Even if he sometimes did not want to take a concubine, there would always be a time when he had no choice, not to mention that if he entered the officialdom in the future, he would still have to take a concubine. There are many social activities, and there is no way to avoid them.
He thought so and said so.
Xu Huaiyi's expression was calm, but his tone was extremely determined, "I won't be contaminated by that. I can go to social events, but women won't touch them. Of course, if other people touch them, I won't make irresponsible remarks. That's their freedom."
"Then what if the other party insists on giving it to you? If you don't accept it, you are unsociable and don't give face. This social interaction will not go on. You will offend others and even fall out with the other party. What will you do? Or refuse?"
Xu Huaiyi nodded without thinking, "No matter who it is, they can't let me betray my wife."
"..."
This sentence was so decisive that everyone else was shocked.
After a while, Su Zhe asked in a daze, "Is it worth it?"
Just a woman, how influential is she?
Xu Huaiyi said, "It's worth it."
"Even if it ruins your future?"
"Well, even if my future is ruined and I'm penniless, I won't betray her."
Su Zhe had no doubt about the authenticity of what he said, he just couldn't accept it.
Others are not like this. Meng Ping was born in poverty, but he also had a dream of having harmonious wives and concubines and having children in groups after he passed the imperial examination and became an official.
Only Li Yunting was the calmest and even echoed, "I think Huaiyi's idea is a good one and very wise. I will follow suit in the future."
"What?" Zhao Sanyou looked at him in disbelief, "Why?"
This is too unthinkable. It's not wrong to hug people from one side to the other. Even the censor who stares at officials all day long and finds faults will not impeach such a thing.
Li Yunting said calmly, "Because there is only one woman in the backyard, there won't be so many fights. Without intrigues and plots, men can focus more on their career."
Zhao Sanyou said subconsciously, "But if there is only one, it will be very troublesome to carry on the family line. Many children bring blessings. Who doesn't want more children to take care of?"
Li Yunting said meaningfully, "Do more children really mean more blessings? Not necessarily, like Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, there are eight children born directly and concubine in total. Everyone has their own little abacus, what they are thinking about. To get benefits from one's own house, for that benefit, to scheming, intrigues, and scheming against each other, like treating enemies of life and death, there is no brotherly love at all, then it is also called having more children, more blessings, huh, more children, more disasters, right? "Zhao Sanyou choked and couldn't argue for a moment.
Li Yunting continued, "There were eight who survived, and many others turned into a pool of blood. Aren't those lives? Aren't they the children of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion? But they all became victims of the fight. Like me, I didn't know how to hide. After so many calculations, if I hadn’t been lucky and protected by my master, I would have died long ago.”
"Don't say it's just like Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. How can there be anyone in a big family who doesn't fight for it? The more women in the backyard, the more chaotic they will be, and the more sins they will commit. Of course, there are a few who are harmonious, but there are really too few. ”
"The root cause is that women provoke too many people, and they are natural enemies. Those who look forward to brothers and sisters, huh, are just self-deception and wishful thinking. Those who look forward to harmony between wives and concubines are even more naive and ridiculous."
He has always been taciturn and cold, rarely saying so many words at once. He would become famous without saying anything.
Xu Huaiyi was the first to express his position, "That's very good. Look at the essence of the problem. This is the fact. If you only have one wife, the backyard will be absolutely clean. Moreover, if the children have the same father and mother, the relationship will be better. Even if there is some friction in interests, it will be better. Easy to solve.”
Su Zhe asked, "What if the wife you marry is in poor health, which will hinder your childbirth? And you won't take concubines?"
Xu Huaiyi said, "I don't care about this anyway. My wife just gave birth to a daughter. I like her very much. I am content with having only this daughter for the rest of my life."
Su Zhe's eyes widened, "Is it okay if I don't want my biological son?"
Xu Huaiyi said, "Well, it's feasible. Actually, I don't want to have another child, not even a son or a daughter."
This time it was Zhao Sanyou who asked, "Why?"
Xu Huaiyi said melancholy, "If I have another child, I will have to give up half of my love for Ah Li. I can no longer love her wholeheartedly. I always feel that I will wrong her."
Zhao Sanyou, "..."
God, it's so rare to hear such arguments in my lifetime.
Su Zhe was also shocked this time, "You only have a daughter. How can you continue everything you have worked so hard for?"
"Give it to my daughter."
"Wouldn't that make it easier for people with foreign surnames? Are you willing to do that?"
"I can find a wife for my daughter."
Su Zhe almost blurted out the sentence "What kind of person is willing to come here to be a son-in-law?" Thinking of Xu Huaiyi's identity, he couldn't hold it back, "Your level is beyond the reach of ordinary people, I admire you!"
Anyway, he can't do it. When he marries a wife in the future, it will definitely be a well-matched marriage. There will be no talk of feelings, only interests. He is not willing to protect himself for such a woman. In the future, he will definitely choose a few more favorites to carry into the backyard.
Xu Huaiyi accepted the compliments with a smile.
After buying the people, they were all sent to the new house. Xu Huaiyi gave the money to the housekeeper and asked him to take care of the house for the time being. He would clean the house that needed to be cleaned, prepare the things that needed to be prepared, and he had not found anyone to start work on the places that needed to be renovated. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I can’t think of making big moves until after the New Year.
The housekeeper's surname was Yu. He was a man in his thirties. He was taciturn but shrewd. Su Zhe helped him choose the housekeeper. Xu Huaiyi asked a few questions and all the answers were correct to his liking. He asked him to do things. Just accept it without any embarrassment on your face, and you won't find any excuses to shirk it.
Xu Huaiyi was satisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it in his mouth. The profession of housekeeper is quite special, and he needs to study it for a while before he can feel comfortable using it.
On the way back to the college, we encountered a scene. A bunch of people gathered together, and even the road was blocked. Carriage passing by had to queue up one by one.
When the speed slowed down, Su Zhe became impatient and urged the boy driving the car outside, "Go and see, what's going on?"
"Yes, Master."
Not long after the boy left, he ran back and reported, "Master, someone wants to sell himself to bury his father."
This is an old drama, and few people feel it is strange to hear it.
"Then why are there so many people watching?"
"Because the woman who wanted to sell herself had a very good appearance, which attracted many people to compete for her."
Su Zhe became a little more interested when he heard this, "It turns out that her appearance is outstanding. How does it compare to the girl from Chunshui Tower?"
The boy said, "It's better than it is."
"Really?"
"I dare not lie to you, young master. Not only is that woman as beautiful as a flower, she also has a very eye-catching temperament. She is the kind of man who, after seeing her, would like to take pity on her and be willing to buy her anything..."
The people who spoke these words became curious and had to wait. They simply got out of the car and took a look. At this glance, they knew that the boy was not lying. His face was indeed good-looking, and his temperament was... It's really eye-catching. Kneeling there in white clothes, it's like a lily in the wind. It's so beautiful and touching that it makes people feel unbearable. They want to take it home and take care of it carefully.
This woman didn't need much money. She only needed twenty taels of silver to buy her whole life. After she buried her father, she was willing to serve her master as a slave.
Twenty taels of silver is naturally a lot for the common people, but for the rich, it is not worth mentioning. This is indeed the case. Many young men from rich families are bidding to buy her, and there are even some among them. Several wealthy and powerful children also had their thoughts moved.
It's just that the woman didn't even nod. Yes, she wouldn't agree to anyone's offer. She would only go with him if he got close.
It's like picking a husband.
However, no one has turned against her for being so pretentious. Who told her she was beautiful?
When it comes to beauties, men always have to be more tolerant.
Su Zhe asked Xu Huaiyi in a low voice, "What do you think?"
Xu Huaiyi said, "If you want to be pretty, be filial, as expected."
Su Zhe raised his eyebrows and was about to say something when he heard Xu Huaiyi continue, "Packaging yourself like a little white flower swaying in the wind, so many rich and powerful young masters are unwilling to go with them, it seems that the plan is not small. "
I just don’t know who the unlucky guy she chose is.
Su Zhe chuckled, "So you think so too? Guess who her target is?"
Xu Huaiyi shook his head, where can I guess?
Su Zhe said half jokingly, half seriously, "Do you think it could be one of us?"
Xu Huaiyi was stunned for a moment, "No way? What do we have to attract? Is it you or Yunting?"
Su Zhe glanced at him meaningfully, "It's most likely you."
